Cool Need to plug some holes

My 2010 xk coupe has two small hole in the back below and wide of the licence plate. Looks like they were there to place a large european type plate. Are there plastic plugs out there that fill these small holes? They are about 1/8 inch? thanks

Perhaps" Bumper Plugs

I've used them before on Porsches.

The lid has 8 holes covered with circular black adhesive patches:



The idea is that this is 'universal' and suits the requirements of all markets.

The dealer punches out the appropriate holes and presses in the square white plastic plugs to retain the registration plate. (the two for mine are visible in the third row down)

One option is Jaguar list registration plate mounting frames in the accessory brochure which cover the remaining holes.

I don't find this a particularly satisfactory solution and have usually had the additional holes filled and sprayed in body colour.
